PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION
SEARLE'S Index, as the General Index to Swedenborg's Scripture Quotations, published by the Rev. A. H. Searle, has come to be known, has proved a useful compilation, especially to the New Church, during the last 70 years, and a second edition is now called for.
This new and corrected edition remains substantially Searle's Index, but paragraph sub-division numbers as introduced by the Rev. J. F. Potts, B.A., into his Swedenborg Concordance and incorporated into subsequent edition of the Writings, have now been included.
Another departure from Mr. Searle's practice is the removal of the double references to the verse numbers of the Word which occur in certain portions of the Index where Swedenborg's enumeration differed from that of the Authorised Version. In this edition, the Authorised Version notation alone has been retained throughout.
All those who have collaborated in the preparation of this new edition of the Index earnestly hope that its usefulness has been enhanced.
PREFACE
IN compiling this Index to Swedenborg's Scripture Quotations, we have based ourselves on the Index General by Le Boys des Guays, published at Saint-Amand in 1859. We have, however, excluded from our Index the references to the Adversaria, because that work belongs altogether to Swedenborg's preparatory stage. For the same reason we have thought it unnecessary to include references to the explanations contained in the Index Biblicus, which work has become accessible only since the appearance of M. des Guays' Index. We have also omitted the variousletters which were affixed to the numbers in Le Boys des Guays' Index to indicate the fullness or brevity of Swedenborg's citations and explanations; contenting ourselves with printing those numbers which contain a quotation of the words of the text in blacker type than those which contain mere references to chapter and verse.
On the other hand, we have added references to several small treatises and letters not included in M. des Guays' Index. We hav.e also indicated the various works by the initials of their English titles, except in the case of those which have not as yet been translated ;-these we have designated by their Latin titles. And when the same text is cited in several works, we have indexed the citations in the chronological order of the works in which they occur.
Another feature of this Index consists in the introduction of references to the explanations of each verse in Genesis and Exodus in the Arcana Caelestia, and of the Apocalypse in the Apocalypse Revealed and the Apocalypse Explained; these serial citations we have indexed under their respective verses before the references from the other Writings.
In the absence of any uniformly adopted subdivision of the long numbers in the Apocalypse Explained, we have considered it useful to add references to the pages of the photolithographic edition*-the fundamental edition-of that work.
The division of chapters and verses in the text of the Bible has presented some difficulty. For Swedenborg quoted now from one edition of the Bible and now from another, giving the numbers of chapters and verses just as they stood in whichever edition he happened to quote from at the time.
The confusion thence resulting we have done away with by verifying and where necessary correcting every citation in accordance with a uniform standard of notation :-this standard, for all the books of the Old Testament except Genesis and Exodus, is the notation in the Latin column of Schmidt's Hebrew-Latin Bible published in 1740-the edition most frequently used by Swedenborg, and for the books of the New Testament the notation in his Latin Bible published in 1696.
In his own translation, however, of Genesis and Exodus in the Arcana Caelestia, Swedenborg seems to have adopted a numbering of verses peculiar to himself, for it differs in several instances from the notation in every other version with which we have compared it : we have therefore corrected every citation of these two books in accordance with Swedenborg's own numbering.
In every case, however, where the notation employed in the Authorized English Version of the Bible differs from that of our adopted standard, we have noted the difference by placing the English numbering in parentheses.*
